Soo & the City Blog

Living in the 4th largest city in the nation, I believe Houston is one of the best cities in the US to live, work and play! I consider myself the average consumer, not so much a foodie, who likes to educate like-minded people on the overall experience of my continual discoveries of restaurants, shops, new real estate developments, social spots, and the neat little places to go for everyday living in the city of Houston. I love learning about new fun things in the city and I like to share those new, fun and helpful things with everyone I know. I've created this blog for people that like such things as well. Ok, hope you enjoy!

What a great find! I wasn't actually looking forward to this place since it's described as a "gastro pub", but it came highly recommended by a foodie friend and she was right, it was really good! The atmosphere is cool, not many people though, which was fine...it was 2pm in the afternoon on a Saturday. The Edison drink was good and sort of looked like a Arnold Palmer. I just wanted a sip but had several sips! I ordered the Cornmeal Blueberry Pancakes with a side of egg whites but somehow I got the pancakes and the Farmhouse Breakfast, which was actually fine since I really liked the Farmhouse Breakfast! Loved the Brussels sprouts and veggies that came with it. And somehow describing them as "farmhouse eggs" made them taste extra fresh! And the Blueberry Pancakes, wow I really liked it, it was so tasty! Nice and crisp edges and just super yummy! I personally did not love the compote but the 16 year old seemed to really like it. I preferred the sprinkling of fresh blueberries that came with it. And Matt said his Barbacoa Omelette was soooo good, loved the green sauce and might be the best omelette he's ever had. Love loved the brunch here! Can't wait to go back and try the French Toast!
